I'm just quoting this because I agree. This year was my first time ever going to watch team state. It was an awesome thing to watch, the gym was packed and energetic, it was good for the sport. It is a shame that it is gone.

I hope he doesn't get caught. Hypnosis is illegal in international rules. ;D The Most Illegal Wrestling Move : Using Hypnosis !

Tucker, 171 from Jasper, didn't wrestle yesterday due to injury.

Jasper Middle School has two young ladies wrestling this year.

Thank you for posting this! It reminded me that we need to talk to our kids about it. Such a tragedy.

This has already gotten past the point of being absurd. If you want to go that route, Jasper has a contract to wrestle with every team there. So we (Jasper) could either not wrestle one team or illegally wrestle 6 times tomorrow. Which wold you prefer? There was a simple mix up. We were under the impression that Forest Park was not going to be coming this year, so we signed a contract with Greencastle. Forest Park had one more year on the contract and decided they wanted to stay in for one more year to honor the contract. Its nobodies fault and its NOT a big deal. Things will go back to normal next year when forest park is no longer in the meet. But for this year, every team simply cannot wrestle every other team. It is ONE year. We will be back to wrestling every one of these teams next year. It really makes no sense to me why people on here are acting like it would be fine for us to not wrestle either Forest Park or Greencastle when we have a contract with them as well. Are they less important? Because that is the attitude I am sensing on this board. I think everyone would be better served if they concentrated on the tough competition that they DO have tomorrow instead of worrying about who they don't have. For the people that say that we duck good competition, have you even looked at our schedule? The first week of our schedule we see four of the top 12 teams in the state. In a couple of weeks we will hop on a bus and drive to Mishawaka for, in my opinion, the best individual tournament in the state. If we wanted to avoid tough competition and inflate our records, I am sure that there are easier and closer tournaments that we could go to. Not only do we face plenty of ranked teams throughout the year, we also face plenty of tough unranked teams (Heritage Hills, Princeton, Mount Vernon, Jeffersonville etc.) One year of not wrestling Castle doesn?t change that. I have a lot of respect for Castle?s wrestling program. In my four years of coaching at Jasper I have never had any bad experiences with Castle coaches or fans. Lets not change that by acting immature. Mark McComish Jasper Assistant Coach

I know this is being talked about in other threads, but I decided to start a thread about it. Did anyone else think that the stalling calls in the finals were called a lot slower than in the regular season? I remember when I first started watching college wrestling, I was surprised at how quick stalling were called. I thought it was good that people were forced to wrestle. However, in the finals they allowed people to backpedal to the boundary without a stalling call. I understand that the officials don't want to determine the match, especially when they get under the big lights. But, it seems like it was allowed to go out of control this tournament.

You don't hold up fingers and sprint away from a guy and do a backflip with time left on the clock. That was extremely poor sportsmanship. They both should have been hit for misconducts. I'm kind of glad metcalf shoved him, because I wanted to. But, that doesn't mean it was right.

Nice reply Barnett. That takes care of that question.

I don't see Baker beating Woods. Not to take anything away from Baker, he is a heck of a wrestler. But I have never seen anyone dominate a defending state champ like Woods did last year against Malone. It was funny watching the guys in the consoles go out of bounds and taking forever getting back to center because they were watching Woods take Malone down easily. Speaking of Woods, is he wrestling in college anywhere?

Wrong! I had him beating Chaflant in the finals.... Good job Alex, look forward to watching you on the Big Ten Network in a couple of years...

They prove that Indiana doesn't need a class system for individual state!
